OP 101: Consolidated BETA payment of income tax
or “Payment of income tax using Branch Equivalent Tax Account for company groups is no longer allowed”

You could also call this:

“Outdated rule about tax credits for company groups' overseas branches”

You don’t need to worry about this part of the law anymore. It used to be about how groups of companies dealt with some tax credits related to their overseas branches, but it’s not used now. The government removed this rule in 2011, and it hasn’t been in effect since April 2008. This means that if you’re looking at your taxes from 2008 onwards, you don’t need to think about this rule at all.
